When you see a segment line like this in a PNR, the airline code identifies Regional Express (Rex):
2 ZL 587 Y 15JUL 2*JFKLHR HK1 800A 2000P
The two-letter code ZL at the start of the segment line is Regional Express (Rex)'s IATA code — every flight segment operated by Regional Express (Rex) in a GDS PNR (Amadeus, Sabre, Galileo, or Worldspan) begins with this code, followed by the flight number.
Regional Express (Rex) is a australian regional carrier, based in Australia. Its ICAO code, RXA, is used for air traffic control and flight planning, while its radio callsign is “REX”.
Once a ZL segment is sold, the fare quote and ticketing entry differ by system. The starting point in each is:
Amadeus: FXP Sabre: WPNCB Galileo: FXP
Each of these prices the itinerary using the lowest applicable fare for the ZL segment(s) in the PNR — the exact fare basis and rules still need to be checked against Regional Express (Rex)'s current fare filing, since GDS pricing reflects what's filed, not a fixed rate.
Like most airlines, Regional Express (Rex)'s fare classes follow the standard GDS booking-class letter system. See our complete booking class guide for what each letter (F, J, Y, and so on) typically means.
